PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Troy Hooper (ranked 790 p4p, 108 weight class) and Jackson Boone (ranked 1012 p4p, 133 weight class). Boone is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Violeta. Jackson Boone struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 172.5lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
